4.0 out of 5 stars History made interesting, May 5, 2000

This review is from: The Dash for Khartoum : A Tale of the Nile Expedition. Also includes Camp life in Abyssinia (Works of G. A. Henty) (Library Binding)
My son has a passion for Ancient Egypt. As a homeschool mom I have tried to encourage this, however, I felt that he should understand that history did not come to a screeching halt in Egypt after the death of Tutankhamen. In reading this book we not only enjoyed a page turning adventure that we couldn't put down, we also opened up an entirely new line of study. My son even wrote mock news paper articles in the, "Language of the time," bearing the sad news of the defeat of the Gallant Gordon. This book was invaluable in our study.
